roses Lyrics

You cut the ground from under me

Pulled the rug beneath my feet

Got your hands dirty

Brought me to me knees

Skipped a beat when you tugged at my heartstrings

Just don't let me go

You know that I'll be there tomorrow

In the whole wide world

Keeps me on my toes when you are always at my throat

Never thought I'd be

So deceived by someone so heavenly

The cross you bear weighed on me so heavily

And though I'm less alone ever since I've let you go

I stand to hold that rose of yours to keep you close

Wish I'd have changed my mind

Should have seen the warning signs

I guess its all right

Let me slip through your fingers

Keeping head above water

Went from one ear and came out the other

Failed to realize the heart of that matter

Jumping out my skin

I'll remember you darlin

Can't tell you anything

I can't wrap my brain around it

Or sink my teeth in

Never thought I'd be

So deceived by someone so heavenly

The cross you bear weighed on me so heavily

And though I'm less alone ever since I've let you go

I stand to hold that rose of yours to keep you close

Wish I'd have changed my mind

Should have seen the warning signs

I guess its all right

I should have known better

Said I won't be this dumb, why can't I keep my word?

Stupid mother fucker

She said I could call her way back when I knew her

Said she needed some time

Well I guess she lied

So deceived by someone so heavenly

The cross you bear weighed on me so heavily

And though I'm less alone ever since I've let you go

I stand to hold that rose of yours to keep you close

Wish I'd have changed my mind

Should have seen the warning signs

I guess its all right
